    To the OP:

    As Paul Thorn song says, "You might be wrong". We as humans are not actually all that great at determining odds.

    When taking a class or when I instructed, I keep it simple. I have a double mag pouch to put on behind my normal setup. As others have said, I then just feed the full magazines into my normal single...

    Playing the odds?

    I think Gregg hit the important word in his article, TRENDS. Other than that it really doesn't matter to me what they are carrying.

    So real to look like toys is important to me. Important to...

    Do you have a training gun? If money is an issue I could see swapping the 19 for another 26 as a training gun. When I retired that was my plan.

    My wife told me to just get another 26 and keep the...

    I've seen people do this who have absolutely no medical issues.

    To me it's more about going back and forth between the triggers. Can you be more susceptible to this than others? Sure.

    It may...

    For me:

    1. Buy major manufacturers gun that is proven over time by someone else. Glock for me. But there of course are others.

    2. Don't buy another generation gun until it is proven. I'm still...

    This is a bit of unprofessional, taking a chance of not being recognized as an officer and changing times. Meaning it's tough for me to separate my old codger syndrome and professionalism. LOL.

    What do you say? Been there done that. Talking about this stuff isn't for you or me. It's for those inexperienced that find PF to think about stuff. It's not an argument. It's just putting a little...

    So if I haven't learned to read my sights and call my shots, would it be harder to, "know" if I'm doing it correctly? What if I think I know what that looks like but am actually getting sloppy...

    I found without the feed back of the bullet a timed trigger press during dry fire lied to me. I always had to be careful so that dry fire didn't actually become a negative for my trigger press. Maybe...

    You are correct. It often is about time and money. Much of the problem is also systemic from LETC all the way to retirement. The, "Improvement" to any system really needs consistency and has to start...

    We had a similar policy. But in all my years I never saw anyone terminated. I also never saw any put on a work improvement program. If they were willing we would work with them, even on the weekend....

    1.Comfy guns might not be the best self defense gun.

    2. Training with one type gun and using a different gun to save one's life might have negative consequences.

    I did my Filipino squat with my G43 AIWB from JMCK. The holster has a sponge on the back. No problems. Some people just can't carry a G19 even after giving it the old college try. Nothing wrong with...

    My Ameriglo sights are definitely set up to cover the target. You said currently. I assume you have shot that pistol with different sights just fine? If so it may be the sights. Even perhaps a...

    Most people who are left handed on the glock shoot slightly right when new. They go through the same progression as any right handed shooter only in reverse. That doesn't mean the pistol can't shoot...
